Edit a Workflow

You can modify an existing workflow to adapt it to a specific use case. You can upload and customize rules from the Custom Workflow Repository, modify your own workflows, or edit the default workflows that are available in your YouTrack instance.

When you apply changes to default workflows, your changes are preserved even when a new version of the default workflow is included in an upgrade of the product. You can revert your changes and restore the default definition of the workflow at any time. For more information, see Restore Default Workflows.

Updates to workflow rules are applied immediately in all projects to which they are attached when the changes are saved in the workflow editor.
